Info panel does not open on 'i' hotkey

Post by FKCapitalism2 »

To reproduce hide info panel in full screen view before closing XnViewMP – it must be hidden when you launch program.

Open XnViewMP and open any image in full screen

Press I hotkey to open info panel – notice nothing happens it does not show info panel at all on first time clicking I hotkey.

Can show info panel in two ways:
  • press I hotkey one more time (to close panel that was never open) then press I hotkey again to open panel properly this time.
  • switch to previous/next image with PageUp/PageDn.

I can't reproduce with these steps. i hotkey to show/hide info panel seems to work fine.

Check your settings in Settings:View:Fullscreen Do you have show info on or off?
Or View:Info, is Always show in fullscreen enabled?

Try to reproduce with the default .ini file.

What this options do Settings > View > Fulscreen > Show Info

After messing with that i seems to have more lag now.

I have both disabled,

P.S. i don't need info to always show in full screen.
